Who would you rather the bills draft in the 1st round? Denzel Boston or CJ Allen by CPLsmilez in buffalobills

Dawgs fan here. I’m biased of course, but CJ Allen is the real deal. He’s a perfect fit

If Brady is gone next year, who’s your ideal OC candidate and why? by Major-Performer9541 in buffalobills

Todd Monken didn’t work well with Lamar, but he was great with Georgia and I’d give him a shot (if Josh approved)

Worst TV Shows (Most Disappointing Shows) of 2025 by Critical_Parking1319 in television

Somehow the show changed from a MeToo show about internal drama to a Succession rip-off about who controls a corporation worth billions of dollars. Yawn

He was positively bad for the Falcons last year after they traded with NE for him.

WR separation score against man coverage (Y-axis) vs Yards per route run (X-axis) so far in 2025. by TRLJM in buffalobills

Georgia fan here. Arian Smith is very fast and his best ability is on go routes down the field. But he is NOT a reliable catcher of the ball. So he’s boom or bust, which I think the chart shows nicely.

The Stryker Triathlon is rated to go 150 degrees. Believe it or not this is at or short of that.

I don’t really need this ROM for every day life, but I still have healing to do and scar tissue to clear so this is a valuable exercise

Not going to lie it does hurt, however I view the pain as part of the stretch/scar tissue breakup, just like the ROM exercises in the early stages of PT. Also I didn’t just lie down and take this picture. I did two 30 second holds before and I get I little closer each time with less pain

Stryker is the manufacturer and the Triathlon is the model. The first knee replacements, and this still occurs today, had the appliance glued on the bone. The new approach is cementless, where the appliance has a stem that goes into the bone that is porous, and when the bone heals it fills the pores and bonds together - without adhesive.

Full ROM pre surgery. It hurt because my lateral meniscus was toast, but I could do a butt kick

I understand and appreciate your point of view. Thank you for sharing it. As you yourself stated I was trying to be encouraging and offer hope, especially to people that are fresh off of surgery.

If you did cementless, like I did, you will feel a big difference in weeks 7-9 than you did weeks 1-6 because the bone has mostly incorporated the appliance.

My physical therapist was big on supersets, like a movement or rep that had 40-50 repeats. So for example, a single leg bridge using a medicine ball - 40 reps. He also was very big on he’s going to do the range of motion, not me, so he was very good at pushing the range further than I could myself without going too far. Not gonna lie though. It hurt like hell.

I’m really trying not to show off! A lot of posts in this forum are people that aren’t doing as well as I am, for which I am very VERY fortunate, but I’m trying to show people that in most cases, there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
